-
When did the men of Lake-town
-
come to our aid but for the promise of rich reward.
-
A bargain was struck.
-
A bargain?
-
What choice did we have
-
but to barter our birthright for blankets and food.
-
To ransom our future in exchange for our freedom.
-
You call that a fair trade?
-
Tell me, Bard the dragon-slayer,
-
why should I honour such terms?
-
Because you gave us your word.
-
Does that mean nothing?
